Reporting in a war zone is no easy feat. While this guy definitely blurs the lines between reporter and combatant (reporters generally don’t fire upon people), this video he took in the Donbas is definitely unnerving to watch.

As he hides in a house, he hears the characteristic hum of a drone. Eventually, the drone makes its way over to him and explodes. Luckily for him, he makes it out alive, but I’m sure that’s a sound he’ll never forget.

Like a horror movie: Russian war reporter/combatant films himself being chased by a Ukrainian drone inside a factory in Donbas.

Lucky for him, the drone explodes but fails to cause harm. pic.twitter.com/qxxSWrplGK
